    Abstract: A refrigerator including a sliding plate provided to be slidably moveable and couplable to a front surface of the door, a cover display provided to be rotatable and supported on the sliding plate, a display to which the cover display is couplable to be rotated together with the cover display, a plurality of rotation limitation parts provided to define a rotation range of the cover display, and a release screw provided to allow at least one of the plurality of rotation limitation parts to be adjusted to thereby release a rotation limitation of the defined rotation range of the cover display. As the cover display is being rotated beyond the defined rotation range as the rotation limitation of the cover display is released, the cover display is separated from the sliding plate together with the display and the cover display is no longer supported by the sliding plate.
